Mays is slightly over-hyped, IMO. His physical skills are amazing, but he doesn't show an instinctive inclination to the level of guys like Stuckey, Berry, Johnson and the like.

I think he's Bernard Pollard with more speed. And there's nothing wrong with that, but not top ten pick worthy.

Thats funny coming from a guy who wants to draft a tackle from a spread offense.

As I said, with the Chiefs running a semi-spread anyway, and it being adopted more and more throughout the NFL, I don't see a problem with Okung as the Chiefs first round choice. Besides, he's been a starting LT for three seasons now, and has gone against quality rush ends consistently during his college career. He has excellent footwork and plays hard all game long. I'd rather have Okung at LT, which allows Albert to slide over to LG (a position that I think he could be absolutely dominant at for the next decade), and draft a player like Stuckey in the second than just have Berry in the first. (And as I stated, I don't think that Mays has shown enough instinct on the ball and quality tackling to be considered anything other than a faster Bernard Pollard at this point. And like I said, that's not a bad thing, just not a top ten player in my opinion.)
